Much Appreciated. I dont take it to the snow. I bet these would be difficult to drive though in the snow. Are you going to try it?

[@GrotrianSeiler]

@@fogcityrc4874 you're right. It might be too small. I have an ECX Ruckus brushless, it's also 2WD, and it has seen a lot of snow. Huge fun. But it's 1/10 scale so, makes sense.

[@estern001]

This video should have been called, "RC at the world famous Golden Gate Park." That thing is launchable. I have a feeling the shock issue is a fluke. That little rig looks worthy of a proper bash.

[@fogcityrc4874]

Hey Eric! I really like these things. Super fun and fast. And you can upgrade them all day long!

[@jstyleent]

Nice upgrades! Will that brushless motor work well in the mini B? I'm planning to order that motor for my setup. Also, do you know if these upgrades will be compatible with the buggy? Thanks for the video!

[@fogcityrc4874]

I bet it would but check out my latest video on my brushless upgrade I did on my B

[@mrc545]

Late to the party, but just got mine today. Chose to start with the optional shocks front and rear. First losi so forgive my ignorance, but do the shocks even require oil? I opened the package to start the swap, of course thinking filling them with oil first, and doesn't even seem like the cap unscrews? Thanks for your prompt reply and awesome video to give me some good starting points!

[@fogcityrc4874]

Congratulations. Yes they need oil. They fill from the bottom of the shock body. Unscrew the black platic nut and go from there.

[@mrc545]

@@fogcityrc4874 Fantastic. Obviously opposite of every other shock I've dealt with. Recommendations for weight? The lightest I have is 30wt. Thinking the truck is so small that would be the max. Thank you.

Hello friend, what density did you use for the shock absorbers?

30 weight

Any idea how much weight it gained? I run my brushed model 100% stock because I don't want it to gain a bunch of weight. I thrash it on a dirt track and have not broken a thing!

[@fogcityrc4874]

not sure but it probably just a few grams heavier.

Since the servo it comes with us junk, which servo do you suggest for an upgrade?

Hitec HS-55. Losi does have a servo saver kit that also has new servo mounts

Is it the same on the mini b? Because I kinda like my mini d servo, its the fastest servo I have and it has metal gears

You dont want aluminum a arms. You want a arms to break. With aluminum a arms the brunt of the force of a crash will bypass the aluminum a arms and damage something more difficult and expensive to fix.
